[keycloak-dev] Branches for the quickstarts

The default branch regardless what it's called should be the branch users
should use for the latest Keycloak release. The reasoning for that is that
a user when trying the quickstarts should not have to do a clone then
checkout another branch.

We could either go with:

1. master (default branch) and dev
2. latest (default branch) and master

My vote goes to option 2.
